Joining with our Laurier community to grieve this loss, and affirm our care for each other. Know that we’ll bouy each other and those impacted with Laurier love in the days to come.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of Laurier student Jenna Lorente. Losing a student has a significant impact on our entire Laurier community. Support is available for students and others directly impacted bit.ly/2G6lp5S

Great to see @UWaterloo North & South campuses and @Laurier among the best @citywaterloo places. Universities aren't just for students, faculty & staff. We have cool buildings (inside & out) and green space for our community to visit anytime. Just mind our geese right now...

Inspiring indeed. Proud of our #Laurier students for so many reasons.
✅ Creating Syria’s first women’s soccer club ✅ Founding a library in a refugee camp in Turkey ✅ Building a hub for start-ups in Damascus The scholars I met today from International Students Overcoming War @Laurier represent the future of peace. They’re an inspiration.
